Exocrine Pancreatic Tumours and Tumour -Like Lesions ;

Paediatric Pancreatic Tumours ;

The cysts are lined by PAS-positive, mucus-secreting columnar epithelial  cells, occasionally with some endocrine, Paneth and/or goblet-like cells. Glycogen is absent.

Cell stratification, papilla or gland formation and crypt invagination may be seen.

Beneath the epithelium is a densely cellular fibrous ("ovarian-like") stroma. 

At the benign end of the spectrum of appearances the cystic spaces are lined by a single layer of mucin secreting epithelial cells. 

Borderline cases show moderate dysplasia such as papillary infolding ,cellular pseudostratification.
